3Dsolar display devices are set to transform the way individuals experience multimedia content both at work and home. For the very first time, computer users will be able to view 3D objects hovering a few inches away from a screen that rotates 380 degrees - without wearing glasses. The notable feature is the way users will be able to manipulate the virtual image directly with their hands as they would a real object.

Because the images are created using a single 2D view, content providers will not have to incorporate hundreds or thousands of separate images to create the 3Dsolar effect, thus enabling them to re-focus on their core business, and develop 3D images more rapidly.

"3Dsolar is light years beyond holography and autostereoscopy in that designers can create images that are highly detailed in color, design and animation," said Patrick Levy Rosenthal, inventor of 3Dsolar.

"3Dsolar technology is true innovation for businesses of all kinds," added Mr. Levy Rosenthal. "Imagine a 3Dsolar screen displaying selected store products 8 inches away from the actual retail store window and offering the passerby the possibility to interact with the virtual objects."

The 3Dsolar device projects the Windows or MAC desktop image into the air whereby users click on icons for manipulation. Its high resolution guarantees quality output with ideal contrast, brightness and color behavior, thus enabling accurate and precise visualization without straining the eyes.

3Dsolar devices in small-scale production cost approximately US $5,000. However, the company anticipates large-scale production to reduce costs to approximately US $1,500.

3Dsolar Software Development Kit (SDK) is free of charge, allowing CAD designers, animation creators, developers, and content providers to view and present their work on 3Dsolar.

"A 3Dsolar prototype has been shown to experts, engineers, and potential customers, and we are proud to report that the initial response has been enthusiastic," said Mr. Levy Rosenthal.

"Additionally, on May 14, 2004, a 3Dsolar prototype was presented to the French Minister of Research, Mr. Francois d'Aubert and former Minister of Finance, Mr. Arthuis, both of whom were very impressed with the product."
